Access Rights for Access-Token Objects
An application cannot change the access control list of an object unless the application has the rights to do so. These rights are controlled by a security descriptor in the access token for the object. For more information about security, see Access Control Model.
The following are valid access rights for access-token objects:
- The DELETE, READ_CONTROL, WRITE_DAC, and WRITE_OWNER standard access rights. Access tokens do not support the SYNCHRONIZE standard access right.
- The ACCESS_SYSTEM_SECURITY right to get or set the SACL in the object's security descriptor.
- The specific access rights for access tokens, which are listed in the following table.
